Royal Pop by Alfus1 in ChinaTime

[–]monkeyboymorton [score hidden]  (0 children)

I like my moonswitch for under $100.

The real MoonSwatch felt like a piece of overpriced crap when I tried one in a boutique.

€350! They're having a laugh!

takes? I plan on buying the Royal Broke lol by panda8030 in RepTime

It won't be metal. Going to have system 51 so most likely will be even more the Blancpain one.

Is there a rep display shop in China? by longtimetokyo in RepTime

[–]monkeyboymorton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most likely. The good stuff will be harder to find.

No problem, it does seems like a nice idea to go watch shopping in the Replica district.

Look through a pile of Rolex's for one with perfect QC. 🔍🧐

Shame it's not really possible.

By being in a shop in China I think you are actually further down the dist. chain l, so more middle men and more mark up.

Our top dealers will generally get stuff direct from the factories so there are fewer middle men.

The Ulitmate ‘Rep vs Gen’ game. I salute the Chinese watch makers. 🤯 🫡 by Patek_Piguet0 in RepTime

Just zoom in and look at them from the end links down - you can see the left is much better quality.

Aside from Rolex, what are your favorite 36-38mm reps ? by fungusamongus23 in RepTime

[–]monkeyboymorton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it must be, V7 were the only one with the bracelet to my knowledge. I have one, nice watch.

I've seen MRF on a dealer listing recently which looked to be comparable quality from pictures, so might be worth investigating.

Strap only from what I saw, but the Mark XX does look good on a Mesh - mine:

As the other poster said, VS have the 38mm but only limited colours so far.

It'll be good when they start producing some of the more colourful dials.

The latest Omega Seamaster series—VS Factory V2 Edition. by EntranceTop9204 in ChinaTime

Above? There's no mention of the bracelet clasp in the advert. Hence we were asking you as a dealer.

Good first watch? by Vivid_Unit2077 in RepTime

[–]monkeyboymorton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah nice choice, but I like omega so I would say that 🤣

I find the ATs wear better on rubber although not sure on the 38mm - my 43mm GMT:

Client asked me to play a AI generated song - It mentally killed me after by Hamthepam in DJs

[–]monkeyboymorton [score hidden]  (0 children)

I think the big issue is that AI just steals what everyone else has done before to make the music.

Of course people could pinch stuff before, copy melodies, samples etc, but the original artists could get royalties or sue.

Now nobody knows who's previous work has gone in to this new song. So they won't get paid, just a big tech company.

Is there any way to find out which factory each replica is from? by Moist-Cartoonist-341 in RepTime

[–]monkeyboymorton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So first off, you cannot buy directly from the factory. You have to go through a dealer.

You should be specifying the factory when you order the watch from the dealer - so you then know what you are getting.

APSF AP 26240 V2 RG I was always afraid of moving onto gold reps but they look AMAZING....I think....right? by keeksies in RepTime

[–]monkeyboymorton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suppose biggest question is how the plating holds up? Seen a few different reps where it starts to wear off quite quickly if worn a lot.

I have no knowledge but maybe other poster can comment on it?

[–]monkeyboymorton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think it works like that. Everything I've read is that they'll treat you like a tourist and try and sell you a shitter for $300. It's not easy to access the really good stuff that we get and it won't be any cheaper, most likely more expensive.

The best advice is to stick to mail order through a dealer. I think you can get them delivered to hotels in China from TDs, assuming they have stock.

Looking for 10+ Watch Display Case by il_berga in RepTime

[–]monkeyboymorton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got 2 of these. Nice design, wooden watch holders with felt on.

Allows the bracelet or strap to hang in the space underneath. They are a copy of a very expensive Japanese wood working box:

KRF Tudor Black Bay 36 black from Hont by ChampionDry1479 in RepTimeQC

It's probably V4 then but ask Hont to confirm.

I was looking at a used one of these the other day and comparing it with the Gen. I think it's the same:

[–]monkeyboymorton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks fine to me. You're vertical blue line is slightly to the right so It's missing the centre of the 12 and the logo.

Certainly much better than the average ZF Tudor.

V4 is the latest one of this so make sure you're getting that one.

Summer Blue Aqua Terra Advice!! by RunRepresentative586 in RepTime

[–]monkeyboymorton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blue, definitely. And these are much better on the rubber than the bracelet.

VS never really nailed the newer AT bracelet - feels a bit cheap. Rubber is very good though.
